By Shelby Brown–
U of L now reports 83 employees were victimized by cyber thieves who stole tax information and filed bogus returns. Professor Greg Leichty and Communication Department Chair Al Futrell make 85. The professors were not contacted by the university or tax processor Equifax about the hack.
Leichty tried to file his taxes in March but the IRS rejected it. They sent him a letter saying his taxes had already been filed through TurboTax.
